Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Males displaying aggression or courtship behavior have the anterior half of their body velvety black, the posterior half bright reddish-orange and the fins whitish in color. Otherwise, both males and females are olive to brown, with only traces of two-tone color in the males. Both sexes with bright blue eyes.

Found in middle to upper reaches of (mountain) streams (Ref. 44091, 58302); known for its climbing abilities: found above 'Akaka Falls (>130 m high) on Big Island (Ref. 44091). Benthic (Ref. 58302). Used for food in Moloka'i and Maui; caught by suspending a baited ipu, or gourd, in midwater, attached to the end of a stout pole; considered a symbol of bad luck in other areas and discarded when caught (Ref. 44091). Max. length (Keoki Stender, pers. comm., 1999).
